  1. Is Broadway and Fillmore part of the Polonia neighborhood? I took my wife to see the Broadway Market some years ago. I hardly recognized the neighborhood, the years have not been too kind.
  2. I have been wondering that myself. I had assumed he was at Winterfell and that he would reappear in last nights show. There was a saying in my neighborhood, when someone stated something that was obvious people would look at him and say "Bill Godwin". I never knew Bill Godwin but evidently he was a master of the obvious to the point of legendary status.
  3. Broadway! My uncle managed the Broadway Market and hired me when I was just 15. Rode the Broadway bus from downtown after school every day for almost a year. Pulaski Day was a big deal there.
  4. Her itinerary, set months in advance, had her in Paris when Diana died and in London for her funeral. She just arrived in Paris 2 days ago and the first thing she did was visit Notre Dame and send us pictures. The fire is now under control.
  5. I pray that is not the case, that would be horrible.
  6. I would venture that it is far more likely connected to the renovation construction of the spire, but speculating about it is pointless.
  7. My mother-in-law is there right now. The last time she was in Paris Princess Diana died.
  8. Reminds me of Seinfeld, the Keith Hernandez 'magic loogie' episode.?
  9. That's why I felt pretty strongly they could come back, that team was stacked. I remember thinking about my dad rooting for the Red Sox his whole life. He had to witness Buckner's blunder but died before the 2004 victory. My dad knew Warren Spahn growing up in South Buffalo. Spahn, Williams, and Yastremski were his favorite Red Sox.
  10. I was living at the south rim of the Grand Canyon and could barely watch. Had a few hundred bucks on the Mets. When Mookie hit that dribbler right to Buckner I thought for sure it was over, when it went through his legs I jumped out of my chair and went crazy. When the Sox were down 0-3 to the Yankees I was telling people they were gonna come back and win the series. The greatest comeback in baseball I have ever seen.
  11. I didn't get a great look at it like this still picture. Definitely looks like more than just a simple spear projectile. I am not sure what it is but I have a strong feeling it will play a significant part.
  12. Arya gave Gendry a weapon design that looked like a launchable dragon glass spear, I think that will be significant at some point. My guess is it brings down the dead dragon or the Night King.
  13. The Red Sox are my other team, when they are not playing the Mets. My dad, born in 1923, was a Sox fan his whole life. Unfortunately he passed in 1999 before he ever got to see them win one. Growing up in Irish SB the Celtics and Red Sox were popular in my family and neighborhood. I guess the S Boston Irish connection. Always hated the Yankees.?
  14. Been a Mets fan my whole life, started following them in '67. I noticed you didn't tell us your favorite team.
  15. The Ha's on you, now you have to give me undeserved respect cause I'm older than you!!! So Happy Birthday but don't forget my respect.? Who is GBID that so unforgivably fuked up the math of this celebration? Where can I find him? Kidding aside, Happy Birthday. It is good to be alive. Lets keep it going.
  16. Happy Birthday Chef ? You are two months older than me. I will from here on out treat your posts with the respect I give to all you old *****. ?
  17. I had Tyrpak for homeroom part of Sophomore year I think, she had me shipped out after I kept crack in jokes about some ridiculous video she made us watch one day. She was a bit high strung and naive then and I was pretty hilarious. I never gave Miss Friedman any trouble because she was a gift from God and she loved me.????
  18. Yes. I loved them both, but Miss Friedman was hotter, far more complex and sexy imo. ? Hilarious.
  19. Yes. Father Carr was awesome, but in front at the stage people definitely lit up and I was shocked but partook nonetheless. I was only a freshman and thought it was customary at Allman shows. I remember all the folks you speak of and it's amazing I happened to bring this up and you were such a central part of it. I tried to ditch the whole affair and escape on the way to it but was caught by Friedhaber. You are killing me brother. That was an incredibly special day. I remember that moment. I was literally standing next to the photographer and that was almost my view. Wow. I was to the left of him in front of the stage. Thank you for blowing my mind tonight. That was what I needed.
  20. He is a treasure. We will see him August 2nd at the Portland Zoo. Seen him twice before but it has been some years now. Looking forward to it, he always makes me smile. I just thought of something, were you there when Greg Allman played at CHS? I was in the front row with my arms on the stage, with Cher and Chastity dancing in front of me. ?? Kids were passing doobies.?
  21. Please don't bury me Down in that cold, cold ground No, I?d rather have 'em cut me up And pass me all around" "Throw my brain in a hurricane And the blind can have my eyes And the deaf can take both of my ears If they don't mind the size" "Give my stomach to Milwaukee If they run out of beer Put my socks in a cedar box Just to get 'em out of here" "Venus De Milo can have my arms Look out! I've got your nose Sell my heart to the junk man And give my love to Rose" "But please don't bury me Down in that cold, cold ground I?d rather have 'em cut me up And pass me all around" "Throw my brain in a hurricane The blind can have my eyes And the deaf can take both of my ears If they don't mind the size, oh man!" "Give my feet to the footloose Careless, fancy free And give my knees to the needy Don't pull that stuff on me" "Hand me down my walking cane It?s a sin to tell a lie Send my mouth way down south And kiss my ass goodbye" "But, please don't bury me Down in that cold, cold ground I?d rather have 'em cut me up And pass me all around" "Throw my brain in a hurricane And the blind can have my eyes And the deaf can take both of my ears If they don't mind the size, that's right" John Prine
  22. I have no idea if he is available. The rumor mill tossed his name out there I guess. I was just saying that he is a good coach and if he was available I hope the Sabres get him. I think the Wild would be dumb to let him go though.
